Schwarzenegger Warming Up For Another Lap As ‘The Running Man’

While we knew that Arnold Schwarzenegger’s return to acting meant he’d be revisiting his iconic roles in Terminator, Conan the Barbarian and even Twins. However, in the words of the actor himself, there are also “rumblings” of another Running Man movie.

“There’s rumblings of a new Running Man movie,” Digital Spy quotes Schwarzenegger as saying Saturday at a Q&A in London, “so it’s a great honor to be asked back.”

Loosely based on the novel written by Stephen King (under the pen name Richard Bachman), the 1987 sci-fi film was set in a dystopian future where convicted criminals fight for their lives on a gladiator-style television show.

Schwarzenegger also talked about the status of his involvement in The Legend of Conan (“It’s an honor to be asked back after all these years, back to the franchise. This is really wild.”), the Twins sequel Triplets (“I’ve read the first draft.”) and his upcoming return in Terminator: Genisys (“I’m still in good shape, and I can do the action and have the energy to do these movies.”).

With all of these Schwarzenegger sequels lined up, is it only a matter of time before we hear rumblings of Junior Junior?
